Progress
| 14 July 2004 | Highways Agency announce their intention to go ahead with the scheme. |
|---|---|
| 14 May 2006 | Local press announces that the scheme has been cancelled, to much local annoyance. |
| 14 July 2006 | The scheme has been postponed for at least ten years by the South West Regional Assembly, who have described it as 'low priority'. |
| 14 January 2007 | The Highways Agency's website confirms that the scheme is 'unlikely to be funded before 2016 at the earliest'. |
| 19 December 2009 | Cornwall County Council have agreed to pay £1.5 million pounds in preparation and design work so the scheme is ready should funds become available before 2019. This is when the road is currently planned to be built according to the South West RFA2 forward planning programme. |
| 17 September 2010 | News reports state that the Transport Minister has met with Cornwall County Council officials and has suggested that the council work with the Highways Agency to bring the cost of the scheme down. |
